SEE WITH YOUR HEART

What if you could see? The man- whose day you made, When you stopped to chat a while. The single mom- who felt reproach no longer, cuz of your smile. The child- who felt forgotten, till you went the extra mile. What if you could feel? The happiness- the man carried in his heart all …

A Dream Awake of Loss and Gain

A paradise with grass of green Perfection in each blade. A golden hue enveloped earth As the sun began to fade. And in the coolness of the eve, -As below cascading green The lion and the lamb lie down- He strolled among His wonders seen. Man and his wife did join their Friend, Together they …
